Hi there @maryflorida, for starters Shingrix is the new and improved shingles vaccine. While we wait for the shock report from John, I would like to ask you if this is the first time you have had the "hot" electric wire pain. My finding so far is that I have gone through many phases of neuropathy.......some have associated pain that is overwhelming and then goes away. We ( my MFR therapist and I) call those "flares" which means we don't expect them to stick around.

As an example, two weeks ago, my left foot was what you call "hot" electric wire and others seem to say "burning". I couldn't put my heel down and of course, had difficulty walking. She spent about 20 minutes on the left foot and the next morning it was tender but not pathetically painful. Her parting words.........just keep calling it a "flare"....see you next week.
The next day I shuffled around a bit and by day two I was back on the Riverwalk.

The following week...... the same thing happened. I went for my walk and back came the flare. 20 minutes of MFR and overnight, the second "flare" took a flying leap.
Today is week 3......no issues.....walked an extra mile or so quite comfortably. Just got home and perhaps this "flare" is history.

And of course @maryflorida there are those pain/body symptoms that do become a major and progressive pain issue requiring treatment and medical assistance.

I also look back and remember the abdomen fires and the leg shocks. They were huge and now they are gone. Let's hope we have just "flares".

May you be free of suffering and the causes of suffering.
Chris
